Overview
Prophet CRM (Avidian) organizes contacts, companies, and opportunities inside Microsoft Outlook, with department-level segmentation, group email capabilities, and document generation built around Microsoft's workspace. HubSpot uses a native CRM object graph with contacts, companies, and deals as first-class objects, lifecycle stage as a contact property, and HubSpot's own pipeline model. The migration carries all standard objects — contacts, companies, opportunities, activities — and custom fields into HubSpot properties. We use Prophet's REST API to pull the full object schema, map department-level structures to HubSpot Teams and custom properties, and sequence the load so company records land before their associated contacts. Workflows, automation rules, group email templates, and document-generation logic do not migrate — those must be rebuilt in HubSpot's workflow builder and the documents app. Activity history (calls, emails, meetings, notes) transfers via API, not CSV, because historical engagement logs require object-level import with owner resolution. The cutover window includes a 24–48h delta pickup so in-flight changes made in Prophet during the switch are captured in HubSpot before go-live.
Every standard and custom field arrives verified.
AI proposes the map; you confirm before any record moves.
Parent–child, lookups, and ownership stay linked.
Calls, emails, meetings — with original timestamps.
Documents, uploads, and inline notes move with the record.

Object mapping
Each row shows how a Prophet CRM object lands in HubSpot, including any object-level transformations, lookup resolution, or schema-design dependencies.
Typical mapping — final map is confirmed during the sample migration step.
Prophet CRM
Contact
HubSpot
Contact
1:1Prophet contact records map directly to HubSpot contacts. We resolve the primary company link and populate HubSpot's company association. Owner is resolved by email match to a HubSpot user; unmatched owners become a custom property on the contact record for reference.
Prophet CRM
Company
HubSpot
Company
1:1Prophet company records map 1:1 to HubSpot companies, preserving all standard fields including domain, industry classification, employee count, and annual revenue. We resolve parent-company relationships by mapping Prophet's parent-company hierarchy to HubSpot's parent-company lookup field. Circular references in the hierarchy are flagged during the pre-migration audit and one relationship is preserved to maintain data integrity before import.
Prophet CRM
Opportunity
HubSpot
Deal
1:1Prophet opportunity records map to HubSpot deals. We map opportunity stage values to HubSpot pipeline stage names using a value-by-value lookup table that your team confirms before migration. Amount, close date, owner, and contact associations transfer with the deal record.
Prophet CRM
Opportunity Stage
HubSpot
Deal Pipeline Stage
1:1Prophet stage names (e.g., Prospecting, Proposal, Negotiation) map to corresponding HubSpot deal pipeline stage names. If your Prophet stages have no exact HubSpot match, we create the stage in your HubSpot pipeline before importing. Stage probability values are stored as a custom field on the deal.
Prophet CRM
Department
HubSpot
Team + Custom Property
1:1Prophet departments with separate data templates and cross-department access rules translate to HubSpot Teams for user permission scoping and a custom contact property (Prophet_Department__c) for historical label preservation. Full department-rule parity cannot be achieved solely through migration and requires post-migration HubSpot admin configuration to rebuild access controls and template logic within HubSpot's native admin settings.
Prophet CRM
Group Email
HubSpot
Contact List + Custom Property
1:1Prophet group email membership does not have a direct HubSpot equivalent. We preserve group membership as a custom multi-select property on each contact so your team can rebuild email lists in HubSpot's lists tool. The email-send behavior must be rebuilt using HubSpot sequences or campaigns.
Prophet CRM
Call Activity
HubSpot
Call Engagement
1:1Prophet call logs transfer to HubSpot as call engagements attached to the contact record. Call duration, outcome, and notes migrate as HubSpot call engagement properties. Original call timestamps and owner attribution are preserved from the source system. Call disposition values from Prophet map to HubSpot's call outcome property using a defined value mapping.
Prophet CRM
Email Activity
HubSpot
Email Engagement
1:1Tracked email history from Prophet transfers as email engagements in HubSpot, preserving the email body and timestamp from the source record. Email templates are not migrated as they rely on Prophet's template library; these must be rebuilt manually in HubSpot's email template library after migration completes.
Prophet CRM
Meeting Note
HubSpot
Meeting Engagement
1:1Prophet meeting records map to HubSpot meeting engagements, preserving the original start time, duration, and attendee list as HubSpot meeting engagement properties. Meeting body or notes content transfers as an attachment or as a note associated with the engagement record.
Prophet CRM
Document / Attachment
HubSpot
File
1:1Prophet document attachments on contact, company, or opportunity records are downloaded via the Prophet API and re-uploaded to HubSpot Files. Files are then associated with the matching contact, company, or deal record via HubSpot's file attachment mechanism. Note that HubSpot's hosting tier imposes file size limits that may affect very large document uploads.
Prophet CRM
Custom Field (Contact)
HubSpot
Custom Property
1:1Prophet contact custom fields map to HubSpot contact properties, preserving the original property data type (text, number, date, pick-list). If a Prophet custom field name conflicts with a reserved HubSpot property name, we append a suffix such as _custom and flag the property for your team to rename in HubSpot settings after migration completes.
Prophet CRM
Custom Field (Opportunity)
HubSpot
Custom Property (Deal)
1:1Prophet opportunity custom fields transfer to HubSpot deal custom properties, maintaining the original data type from the source field. Pick-list value mappings require a value-by-value lookup for each custom pick-list property to ensure the correct HubSpot option is selected for each deal record during import.
Prophet CRM
Owner / User
HubSpot
User (email-matched)
1:1Prophet user records are matched to HubSpot users by email address lookup. If a Prophet owner has no corresponding HubSpot user, their records are assigned to a designated fallback owner and a custom property (Original_Owner__c) preserves the original attribution for historical reporting after migration.
Prophet CRM
Opportunity Contact Association
HubSpot
Deal Contact Association
1:1Prophet's contact-opportunity linking transfers as HubSpot deal-contact associations. When a single Prophet opportunity has multiple associated contacts, we create multiple deal-contact associations in HubSpot while preserving the same primary-contact flag from the source record. If a Prophet opportunity has no associated contacts, the deal migrates as a standalone record and the contact associations are logged in the migration report for manual resolution.

Migration approach
Audit Prophet schema and export via API
FlitStack AI connects to Prophet via its REST API to pull the full object schema: contacts, companies, opportunities, departments, and custom field definitions. We pull engagement logs (calls, emails, meetings) on a per-type basis respecting API rate limits. The audit phase produces a field inventory comparing Prophet field names and types against HubSpot's available property types, flags reserved-name conflicts, and identifies pick-list value sets that need value-by-value mapping before any data moves.
Create HubSpot properties and configure pipeline stages
Before importing records, we create all required HubSpot custom properties for contacts, companies, and deals — matching the data types from Prophet (text, number, date, currency, pick-list). We configure one HubSpot deal pipeline with the stage names sourced from Prophet's opportunity stages. Department structures map to HubSpot Teams for permission scoping. This step requires HubSpot account access with property-creation permissions; we deliver a property-creation checklist your admin can pre-provision or that we execute on your behalf.
Resolve owners and verify user matching
Prophet owner records are matched to HubSpot users by email address. We run a pre-flight owner-resolution check that compares the full list of Prophet owner emails against HubSpot user emails and reports matches, non-matches, and duplicates. Unmatched owners are assigned to a designated fallback HubSpot owner, and the original Prophet owner name is preserved in a custom property (Original_Owner__c) on each record for historical attribution. This step runs before the migration load so no record lands without an owner.
Run sample migration with field-level diff
A representative slice of 100–500 records — spanning contacts, companies, deals, and activity types — migrates first into a HubSpot staging environment. We generate a field-level diff comparing source Prophet values against the resulting HubSpot record properties, calling out any truncated pick-list values, missing associations, or owner-resolution failures. Your team reviews the diff and confirms field mapping accuracy before the full migration run is scheduled.
Full migration with delta-pickup window
The full dataset loads into HubSpot in dependency order: companies first (for association lookups), then contacts, then deals with stage mapping and owner assignment. A delta-pickup window opens at the point of cutover — typically 24–48 hours — capturing any records created or modified in Prophet during the switch. An audit log records every operation performed during migration. One-click rollback reverts the HubSpot portal to its pre-migration state if reconciliation against the source export reveals discrepancies exceeding your defined threshold.
